Hi Hayley. I can completely understand your frustration as I felt exactly the same as how your describing. Thought that because I had overs I would be up and about and doing well after a week the most. But I wasn’t, after a week I couldn’t drive still, felt really tired after doing even the simplest of tasks (like showering and getting dressed in the morning) was still getting aches and pains and it really started to get me down that I would never feel ‘normal’ again. This time last week I still felt pretty shit. I’m now 3 weeks post op and can safely say I feel pretty much back to normal. Am sleeping better, I can drive again and im back at work. My job is very hands on and physical and I’m carrying heavy things all the time and I’ve been ok. Hang on in there hunny it gets easier trust me one morning (soon hopefully) your just wake up and feel completely back to normal. X
